Things You Can Do With Girl Scout Cookies

You’ve seen them in your grocery stores and at your parks. You’ve turned your head to avoid eye contact, but everywhere you look, there they are. They’re sweeping across the nation to take your money and there’s nothing you can do about it. Who are these fiends? Little girls in vests and sashes. That’s right. Girl Scouts.

This spring break, we all thought we’d be returning to massive piles of cold, wet snow, but we were wrong. Instead of being greeted by the abominable snowman, springtime greeted us. And there’s only one thing that can add to the happiness of springtime: Girl Scout cookie season.

Sure, you’ve waited for them. You’ve talked about them. You’ve bought them. You may have even watched John Mulaney beg the troops to share these delicious snacks all year round and nodded in emphatic agreement. You’ve eaten them and savored every bite. But, did you know all of the creative things you can do with Girl Scout cookies besides stuffing them in your mouth?

You can…

1. Lick them and stick them on your face as a fun mask
2. Freeze them before you eat them (Best for Thin Mints)
3. Build a shrine to them and worship them
4. Give them to your mother, father, or other family member
5. Give them to your crush or your significant other. They’ll love you forever.
6. Cry over them and let your salty tears help to wash them down
7. Put them on your forehead and try to get them in your mouth without using your hands
8. Make a castle or a tower out of them
9. Do some creative art projects with them
10. Make ice cream flurries and milkshakes with them

12. Use them as chasers (If you’re 21 and over only! Suggestion: Bailey’s Cream and Thin Mints)
13. Hide them from your friends
14. Buy so many you risk your roommates seeing you as a hoarder
15. Use them to bribe people to do your chores for you
16. Bake with them (Suggestion: Girl Scout cookie pies and brownies)

26. Make a friendship bracelet out of them
27. Carve pictures into them
28. Determine which cookie you identify with best. Example: Do you like your cookies covered in chocolate? Did you know chocolate is peanut butter’s best friend? Do you like to tag along on adventures? You might just be a Tag Along!
29. Tile a floor or wall with them
30. Make ice cream sandwiches out of them
31. Make a sculpture with them
